Materials and Manufacture5.1 Innerspring MattressThe essential components of aninnerspring mattress are: an innerspring core, cushioning,upholstery ticking (either quilted or with a smooth top, andpotentially including a flange), and a border. Optional compo-nents include var
25、ious insulating layers or pads, flanges, andtapes. All materials used shall meet the mechanical propertyand fire performance requirements of Table 1. All materialsused shall comply with appropriate commercial bedding indus-try standards of manufacture and durability. Any constructionof an innersprin
26、g mattress that is suitable for its intended useand that complies with the performance requirements shownherein shall be permitted to be used.5.1.1 Innerspring CoreThe innerspring core shall be con-structed from an all-wire carbon steel. The coils shall extendthe full length and width of the mattres
27、s. The coils shall bepermanently secured to provide long-term structural stability.Various core designs shall be permitted. The support propertiesof the innerspring core, in terms of firmness rating, durability,resistance to impact, firmness retention, and surface deforma-tion, shall be assessed by
28、Test Methods F 1566. The coils, orthe complete spring unit assembly, shall be given suitablethermal treatment to relieve residual stresses caused by coiling.5.1.2 Cushioning and Insulator LayersAn insulator padshall be placed over each sleeping surface of the innerspringcore to insulate the upholste
29、ry from the core. The variouscushioning layers shall be constructed of materials that meetthe performance requirements of Table 1.5.1.3 Ticking and Cover AssemblyThe cover constructionshall be suitable for the type of mattress construction used.Upholstery ticking materials shall be durable, per comm
30、onbedding industry practices. The ticking for each sleepingsurface shall be cut in one piece without fabric splices. Theticking for the mattress border shall be made of not more thantwo pieces of ticking, with the ends spliced and sewn togetherin a continuous manner leaving no gaps or voids in unifo
31、rmityand finish. The border assembly shall be secured to the top andbottom sleeping surfaces of the mattress, by automatic sewing,per common bedding industry practices.5.1.4 BorderThe ticking for the mattress border shall bemade of not more than two pieces of ticking, with the endsspliced and sewn t
32、ogether in a continuous manner leaving nogaps or voids in uniformity and finish. The border assemblyshall be secured to the top and bottom sleeping surfaces of themattress, by automatic sewing, per common bedding industrypractices.5.1.5 TapeA tape shall be permitted to be used to concealthe seams fo
33、rmed between the border, if present, and anupholstery panel. The tape shall be continuously stitched alongthe total length of each seam, with no gaps or voids betweenthe upholstery panel and border surfaces.7Available from National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), 1 BatterymarchPark, Quincy, MA 0
